Is this photoshopped?!? The little guy has turned spherical! is this even possible?

[–] gnutrino@programming.dev 87 points 11 months ago (2 children)

That's what happens when physics teachers get a cat.

frictionless sphere, the perfect pet

Aa long as nobody starts vacuuming around him. Like nature, cats abhor a vacuum (even if they ARE perfectly spherical)

I once saw a cat like that at a B&B in Scotland. A tabby who looked like a furry beachball.

That's not a cat, that's a throw pillow.

Thank you for sharing. That is crazy!

Unfortunately, the shared link is now just after the donut. The demonstration starts at about 4:41.

That was such a great show. Wild that the cat knew donuts as food.

My cat will ignore wet food and meat if there are carrots around. Carrots are obviously not as unhealthy as donuts (to humans at least, I gotta assume that’s true for cats too), but they’re still not something I would expect cats to go for.

[–] limelight79@lemm.ee 8 points 11 months ago

We don't feed our cats donuts, but I have no doubt in my mind they would recognize it as food and go for it, if they really wanted to. (With our current cats, we've never had an issue, but we had one before that would go after any food you left out. And he was super thin, just very food-driven.)

But yeah they're feeding that cat junk food.

Ive known multiple cats that would eat waffles. One of them even stole one off the kitchen counter

[–] Sergio@slrpnk.net 5 points 11 months ago

So a cat could, in theory, really like lasagna...

[–] ChillPenguin@lemmy.world 12 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I love how the owners were like "the cat is unfixable." As if it's the cat that's the problem. Just stop feeding your cat junk food!

Wow, I got way to invested into that video. Thanks for posting it.

ROTUND

[–] AllNewTypeFace@leminal.space 14 points 11 months ago

Absolute unit.

[–] BigDanishGuy@sh.itjust.works 11 points 11 months ago

So she takes in cushioned footstools and stands their constant begging for more food? Good on her, I certainly couldn't do it.

Nice kitty orb
